We are abas

Competitive businesses depend on efficient processes, strategic investments and motivated individuals. If coordinated effectively, these components shield an organization from even the most disruptive technological changes. But achieving this level of business agility is by no means trivial in the face of complex infrastructures, high transaction volumes and dynamic business models.

That’s where abas comes in. For more than 35 years, abas has helped production-related companies around the world create change and profit from digital transformation—with our advanced ERP software, smart business process consulting, and the deep expertise of our employees and partners.

Whether management or controlling, purchasing or sales, service or accounting, production or warehousing: As a comprehensive solution, abas ERP provides each user the exact functions and information they require.

All business areas profit from our broad product portfolio, which, in addition to core ERP functions, also includes a selection of valuable add-on solutions, from APS to Project Management. And thanks to mobile apps, our users have access to their data and processes anywhere and anytime.
